Intel Mac :: DVD Drive Making Noise And Hanging
May 24, 2012My iMac (27'', mid 2010, Core i7, OSX 10.7.4) recently makes some trouble with its DVD drive: The drive often makes horrible noises like a shredder. In this context the disc sometimes doesn't eject. Only Rebooting works. More and more frequently the drive hangs, the connected application (e.g. iTunes, Auditri or Handbrake) hangs and also Disk Utility. Rebooting doesn't work (white freezing screen), only shutdown and complete startup with clicked Trackpad to remove disc. Is it a hardware or software error? The iMac is still qualified for AppleCare. Should I make a repair request to Apple?

Intel Mac :: Making Constant Buzzing/humming Noise?
May 6, 2012I purchased a 21" iMac a couple of months ago. Today it started making constant buzzing/humming noise. It's not really loud, but it is noticeable and annoying after a while. It stops if I put the computer in sleep mode or turn it off, but it starts back up the moment I turn it back on again. It sounds like it is coming from the bottom of the screen near the speakers. I have tried adjusting the brightness and volume, but to no avail. I also tried lifting the computer off the desk to see if it was just vibration, but that did not make a difference either.

MacBook Pro :: System Making Mechanical Noise / Noise Before Start Up Sound
Dec 26, 2010My first generation unibody Macbook hasn't had any problems to this date but now it's constantly making that mechanical loading-like noise which is usually heard when the Macbook is switched on (the noise before the start up sound) or when the lid is opened to wake up the computer. Is there a fix to this?

Jul 8, 2010I have an early 2008 Mac Pro. For the past 6 months or so, it has been making a whirring, clicking, chirping noise. It does this constantly, no matter what I'm doing. I replaced the hard drive, but that didn't help. The sound appears to be coming from the rear of the computer, near the top. (where the power cord plugs in).

Apr 10, 2009Yesterday my PB from 2004 started to make a noise like an angry mosquito. Is it the hard drive dying on me? This is just a take-along-when-I-need-to-be-mobile computer, there's nothing there that needs to be backed up. But I wonder what the noise means.

Jul 22, 2009I was just downstairs in my basement using my macbook and I decided to come upstairs and when I got up here I noticed that my fan is making a weird buzzing noise. I can tell it is my fan because when I make the fans spin faster in smcfancontrol the noise gets louder. Could this be something that is in the fan or could this be a more serious problem? I can take the back case off and check but I just wanted to know if this could be a serious problem with the fan. Is there any chance I could have bent something by carrying it wrong?

IMac PPC :: Making Noise And Blacking Out
Apr 11, 2012My iMac 20" G5 (PPC, working with Tiger 10.4.11), bought in April 2006, has the following illness:Â
When I work locally, it functions fine. When I go into Internet, it starts purring and whining.Â
When I watch a video on YouTube, for example, the purring and whining increases and finally the screen blacks out. With a mouse click, the screen comes back but goes out again immediately.Â
After shutting down the system and giving it some rest, everything starts working again normally, but only until I go online.Â
I have tried to use Disk Utility, but the install disk that came with my Mac gets ejected.Â

MacBook Air :: Fan Making Constant Buzzing Noise
Mar 16, 2008I have had my MBA for almost a week, and I've had no issues so far. Until now. This is the case: The fan operates as it should. It stays on 2500 rpm at light use, and increases with heavier use. At 2500 rpm I was not able to hear it without putting my ear next to the keyboard. That was yesterday. Today the fan produces a new noise. It isn't very loud, but clearly audible at 2500 rpm in a quiet environment. It's a low, constant, buzzing kind of noise. It also increases with fan speed.

Jul 4, 2010I have a 13" MacBook Pro from Mid-2009 and just today I've noticed a real faint clicking noise coming from the fan. It almost sounds like that noise a bike makes when you put a baseball card against its wheel. It's not very loud, but when I'm working in a silent room, it's been pretty annoying. I opened the back and blew all the dust out and all that, but the problem seems to only have got worse since then. The fan is still spinning at its usual 2000rpm.
View 2 Replies View RelatedSoftware :: Won't Watch Dvds On OS 10. / Making Noise
Dec 4, 2008I am having troubles trying to watch DVDs on my iMac. I have Mac OS 10.1 (yes, I know, very outdated; the system is old, and the screen is going, so I don't want to waste money getting a new OS when I could just get a new Mac with it pre-installed.) Whenever I put a DVD into the internal drive, I can hear it trying to load the disc. Mind you, it's making much more noise than if I were to put a CD into that drive. Also, I do have an external drive (Que! Fire brand.) When I put the DVD into that drive, it also sits and loads. I used to be able to watch DVDs thru the internal drive, before my dad wiped the hard drive clean.
